Fix overflow when converting timespec to microseconds. Without this patch you
can get an overflow during the multiplication which can result in a negative number.
hostime is define here:
4.4 hosttime
The hosttime field is set to the current value of the host maintained
clock variable when the frame is received.
(from http://www.locustworld.com/tracker/getfile/prism2drivers/doc/capturefrm.txt)
it is a u64.
